Dragon heads home from ISS after CRS-33 mission, proving orbital reboost capability

SpaceX’s Dragon cargo capsule is set to undock from the International Space Station today, closing the six‑month CRS‑33 mission that demonstrated a new capability to reboost the station’s orbit. During its stay, Dragon performed six reboosts and is returning experiments (Euro Material Aging samples and Thailand’s Liquid Crystals) and other gear, with splashdown planned in the Pacific off California on Feb. 27 around 2:44 a.m. EST (0744 GMT). The undocking marks another milestone for Dragon’s reusable cargo missions, which can help maintain ISS altitude, a capability previously handled by Russia’s Progress.
